I can only hope she started shaking her fist and shouting some sort of melodramatic quip about vengeance back a t Sal immediately afterwards, then found a cape to furl as she stormed away, then got tripped by Head Alien, who would then point and laugh at her.

It’s difficult to interact with someone with a serious personality/behavioural disorder like Sal but at the very least, you need to try to understand and reassure them, not try to find ways to hurt them.

I thought the next panel Mary waa gonna comeback with somthing about Sal selfishly destroying Danny’s life with Billie and that being the reason Mary feels she should protect Danny…. or something to that effect.
